Dr Yockey was a very good Dr. I have worked with him in Topeka and Lawrence. Very good bedside manner, and very knowledgeable. Also worshiped with him at church. He will be missed. Don´t see doctors like him often.

What a dear man he is! Always offering encouragement and his (Christ´s) heart to others. Few days go by without a thought of Charlie! "Steward" manifested!

Dr. Yockey was an exceptional "old school" doctor of the kind that is all too rare in today´s busy world. He was competent, caring, generous with his time and always had his patients´ best interest at heart. I extend my deepest sympathy to his family.
